NBA stars flock to EA Canada for Summer Camp 2008 |
Ó
Electronic Arts Canada, the development wing for NBA Live 08 (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3), is holding its 2008 NBA Live Summer Camp in Vancouver and it's got a handful of stars to help out with tasks at hand.Spearheading the activities will be streak-shooting Washington Wizards guard Gilbert Arenas who will host the events come August 29. He'll be joined by other top-caliber stars like Shawn Marion if the Phoenix Suns, Paul Pierce of the Boston Celtics and Josh Howard of the Dallas Mavericks. They'll be in the fray to get motion-captured for the game.
EA Canada boasts of the world's largest motion capture studio with some of the most advanced equipment for the craft. The NBA stars, according to EA, will be fitted with a special suit for the sessions. These suits will have reflectors and will be shot by 3D cameras surrounding them to capture all the information necessary to make the graphics as realistic as possible.
The sessions intend to digitize the Go-To moves of the players that NBA Live 08 will implement. We can then expect the versatility of Marion and Howard to come to life, and we'll also be seeing Arenas in perfect form as he rains down the treys.
"One of our biggest goals has always been to develop the most authentic sports games on the market," Jordan Edelstein, Director of Marketing, EA Sports. "Bringing in some of the NBAÂ’s best athletes to EA for motion capture gives us the means to create a basketball experience as realistic in the video game as you see it on the court."
